    Some dinner at a fancy restaurant my fiance took me to for my birthday. I did my best to be respectful but I hated everything about it. The food tasted no better than a cheaper restaurant and everyone was so insanely pretentious. Would never choose something like that on my own. All the people with money I know love the place, but I would honestly be happier going to an Applebee’s than throwing my money into the garbage like that and have to have stuffy unrelatable conversations with strangers.

      I think you just pissed off every ex-redditor that came from r/cooking with that Applebees comment lol.

          Most of the criticisms Ive heard of it boil down to people learning how food is made in restaurants for the first time.

            No they’re extra shitty. Trust me I’ve eaten there enough to know. That was one of 3 sit down restaurants in the town I grew up and my parents always wanted to take us out there for specifical occasions and shit. Pretty much any other chain I’ve been to was better.
